    So seeing as we're all locked in and along for this ride together what's going on with the shipping? It seems we've all been told whatever it takes to get us on board. Someone was once told October 1st would be worst case scenario. We were also told 3-4 weeks was typical for the overseas shipment. Its been 7 weeks now since we were told they were on the way. I wasn't in a huge rush for my snorkel but ordered based on what we were being told by the GB host. I'm now looking at making a second 10 hour round trip to the border to pick up my snorkel at a later date as I have other orders waiting there for me now that will need to be picked up and another group buy item on the way next week (ordered a month after the snorkel with a 3-4 week manufacturing estimate plus shipping time). Really doesn't seem worth it for the $38.00 savings over ordering an airflow from a reputable online parts store.

    Why you guys in such a hurry? I doubt you can get them anywhere else, regardless of price because of these group buys. Most online companies drop ship, and with the number of these snorkels sold in the last group buy and this one, they probably had to make more to fulfill orders. Let's face it, most of you don't really "need" it anyway, so just wait. No reason to be pissed at Max, you could have easily looked at the old group buy and see how it played out, so it's your own fault. You could've always got one of those ugly ass ARB ones for a lot more money, but those were even on backorder for a while, and there probably wasn't near the demand for them, especially not the numbers from the group buys.

    Not the point man. Most people don't need it or anything but just when someone is told something like a date then that's what people get their hopes up for. I know max is busy and frankly this is out of his hands. No company expects the numbers this group buy has gotten. Max is a good guy and I have nothing against him. Just a comment here or there on the thread to keep the vultures at bay would help. In the mean time celebrate the cubs winning and the chargers sucking. :thumbsup:

    Again, same thing happened on the first group buy for these. People were stupid to think this one would work out any better. That is the point I was making. You got suckered into it with unrealistic expectations, it's your own fault you are now waiting.
